Cytochalasin H
Cytochalasin H is a cell-permeable mycotoxin that potently inhibits actin polymerization by capping filament ends and preventing monomer addition. This mechanism makes it a valuable tool for studying cytoskeletal dynamics, cell motility, and morphology in both in vitro assays and cellular research.
